Playdough fun
-
from only N$29.50
Playdough has always been a pretty affordable activity for children, but did you know just how EDUCATIONAL it is too? Below are just a couple of the many ideas we have at Play 2 Learn to make playdough even MORE fun in your home. LEGO fun with playdough!
Use the hordes of Lego around the house for a completely new idea. Flatten playdough and teach children to 'write' their name using Lego shapes. This turns letter formation into a ‘concrete’ experience and children always find it far easier to learn in the concrete phase. Parents can also create a fun Lego pattern and your child can then copy using the Lego pieces.
Let’s make a GREAT impression (or two)? ☺ ANOTHER fun idea is to collect favourite toys (a great choice would be the dinosaur stash) – take these and create ‘footprints’ in the playdough. Can their siblings identify which dinosaur made which footprint? Remember the same could be done using various vehicles – which vehicle made which tracks? FUN !! Even Barbie could take a turn walking her high heels over the playdough – she’s probably on her way to the gym? ☺
Learning the alphabet – and numbers! Keeping in mind that children always learn much faster if they have concreated apparatus to use – playdough would be perfect to reinforce letter and number formation. Learning can be fun – and hands-on (that’s what we love most).
We hope you’ve enjoyed some of our fun ideas? Our Play 2 Learn consultants have got SO many more. So stock up on some playdough and enjoy the therapeutic time?
